War Machine respect thread
Ha ha ha... great to see a thread in his honor. So what did you guys all think of the final arc of Greg Pak's run?
"Ha ha ha... great to see a thread in his honor. So what did you guys all think of the final arc of Greg Pak's run? "
The only part of his run that was good was the Secret Invasion tie-in(And even then, that was basically a Roland Emmerich movie) and the prequel with the part where he fed that guy to Polar Bears.
Other than that it felt like a chore to read....
Respect threads have been done for some characters in the past.

The secret invasion tie in was crap
@black_panther18: What's up with people referring to Rhodey as a sidekick? He was never Iron Man's sidekick., an ally, yes, but I sidekick, no.
@daredevil21134: I guess people assume that way because he's Iron Man's main supporting character.

That's bs. Rhodey has cleaned up Stark's messes on so many different occasions. Aside from making the War Machine armor, Stark has never really trained Rhodey in anything as far as my knowledge goes. Rhodey was his own man from day one.
I will make my own War Machine respect thread.
Tag me when you do.
@daredevil21134: Ok. But in chase I forgot you should check out blogs at my profile and find it there (when I make it) as I will make it as a blog. Just in chase I forget to tag you.
@noone301994: you have anymore
Here's a couple more:
His shields stop Valkyrie's sword from touching the armor. Dragonfang is an indestructible enchanted sword that has actually pierced Uru.
And here we see Rhodey tanking the same blast which made Red Hulk scream out in pain:
Tanks hits from Wonder Man:
He's stomped Ms. Marvel:
He's also burnt and harmed Wonder Man's hand with his repulsor cannon on his shoulder:
Here are some more.
Durability:
Strength:
Repulsors:
Magnetism allows War Machine to catch and deflect Mjolnir with such force that the hammer hits Thor and makes him scream out in pain:
Outmaneuvers fighter pilots in jets and dodges missiles after they are fired:
Then proceeds to one-shot the planes.
As many of you may know, Frank Castle recently acquired War Machine's old armor. To set up the feats below, I think it's important to note that he is not very skilled at using this armor:
Nameless fodder SHIELD agents are more skilled and better trained at using these suits than Frank is. Notice how this guy manages to completely outmaneuver and outskill Frank while he's in this suit. He ends up resorting to trickery and evasion because he cannot take a couple at the same time.
As expected, many superheroes were upset that Castle stole Rhodes' armor considering his death. Ms. Marvel is among the many who are angry and she confronts him first:
These are the heroes she decides to get help from:
Cannonball, Spider-Man, Captain America, Tigra, Thing, Hercules, Luke Cage, Spider Woman, Falcon, and Quake.
Here is how that turns out:
